I'm an idiot, but

They do 2-3-2 in baseball? I thought it was just basketball that subscribed to that madness.

by leftwing on Jul 15, 2008 9:46 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

Sorry, I meant in the finals

“The NBA Finals are played in a 2-3-2 format, meaning the team with home-court advantage hosts games 1, 2, 6 and 7, and their opponent hosts games 3, 4 and 5. The home-court advantage is determined in both rounds by record regardless of seed.”

by leftwing on Jul 15, 2008 9:50 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

I'm pretty sure it's still 2-3-2 unless MLB have changed something

Anyway I’d rather play 4 at home than at …. say, Wrigley, despite what our road record says about it.

Absolutely.

The cop-out that “the game is for the fans” to total B.S. ALL OF PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL IS FOR THE FANS, FOLKS. It. Is. Entertainment. Put together for fan enjoyment and suck the wallets as dry as possible. Period. End of story. there is nothing different in that respect for the ASG.

BUT, the ASG CAN be something different, something special, and that is if it returns to a game of merit, peer-voting, which is the legacy that this piece of crap is milking.

Instead of AT LEAST ONE player from each team, it should be NO MORE THAN 4 PLAYERS FROM ANY TEAM. Players and managers and coaches vote. Starters play at least 5. Each player represents some charity and winning side collects $100K per player for charity of choice. Winner take all. Losing side left to apologize for their sucktitude. No home field advantage in WS stuff.

On a serious note, this game is a perfect example of...

good pitching beating good batting. Which means should the Halos make the playoffs in good health, our pitchers can compensate for the lack of a brutal offensive onslaught.
